This is it


                                

This is it "Missy Times" readers. The prelude to all preludes, the beginning of the end.

This announcement is a heads-up to let you know that the upcoming issue of The Missy Times will be the last, closing chapter in the newsletter's seven year tenure.

Although this is a sad turn of events, it's also a timely one. I started The Missy Times at age eight, and now, at fifteen, I'm entering tenth grade and moving on to new writing adventures, including taking an AP English Language class and working towards getting published in other local publications.

I am currently collecting feedback for the final edition; therefore anything you would like to contribute is greatly appreciated. Things I'm looking for include: a few comments on how you started getting The Missy Times, what your favorite part was about The Missy Times, the title or subject of a memorable story you read in The Missy Times, and your reaction to The Missy Times' retirement. No need to be lengthy-- just mail or email or even telephone one or two sentences by this Friday, July 5th. That leaves you the whole week to think about it!

Please support the MT, because after this, the "CLOSED" sign is going up and it'll be no more.

More details regarding The Missy Times' departure to follow.

  1. My favorite part of the Missy Times was that it was HAND-WRITTEN!! How cool is that? It gave it an artsy kinda feel that only added to the impressive writing. I'll certainly "miss" (ha!) it, but I'm sure you'll be doing bigger and better things in the future!!
